Joe Burrow will be rooting for Aaron Rodgers on Sunday, but it won't solely be because of the ramifications the Jets' game has on the Bengals' playoff hopes. A Jets win over the Dolphins is one of the two things the Bengals need in order to grab the AFC's seventh playoff spot (Denver also needs to fall to Kansas City).
